Ekta n Angels – Where there is a will, there is a way…

Ekta, an angel and late younger daughter of Neeti and Sudhir was differently able as human body. It’s because of her, that ‘physically challenged people’ are now called as ‘differently able’. She requested to show love and care for these people instead of sympathy.

She was born on 12th August, 1990 with skin disease. At the age of 4, she suffered a stroke of Gullain Barrie Syndrome. By the very young age of four, she realized about the existence of supernatural power, which are beyond science. She along with her parents could have cursed the Maker for being so unfair to them and ask WHY ONLY THEM? WHY ONLY EKTA? Instead, when the science, doctors, experts, Homeopathy, Ayurveda, and even hakeems and vaids failed, it was Ekta’s will to live life wholeheartedly and passion of relishing each moment brought the real essence of life to her parents and her siblings. Like the normally able kids she could have attended school but destiny had some other plans to give her more challenge by letting only 10% of her body sustain. She accepted it. She lived with it. She taught the world, how bigger and happier the life can be! She learned Indian mythological poems and couplets which normal people learn at the age of 12 while she was just being 4 years of age. She snatched the crown of many painters, mehandi-designers, and artists by doing all these activities with her mouth. She received several awards, appreciation and recognition across the world via Indian media for her thinking abilities, noble mind, attitude of leading a life, desires to learn and creative insight which can be seen in her artworks and creations.

She was honored as role model by Government of India, New Delhi. She also received praise and appreciation by former President Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the great patriot and Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev, Gujarat’s Chief Minister Narendra Modi and celebrities like Abhishek Bachhan, Ashutosh Gowarikar and Anupam Kher. They met her and praised for Ekta’s courage, determination and most important of all – her way of seeing, believing and living life. She also suggested to film producer to make effective film on differently abled people, which can convey the right and powerful message for them.

She was more than a normal human being; she was actually an angel who revived the life of numerous angels across India. She founded ‘Ekta n Angels’, an organization for the service to poor and disabled and became her founder president. Today, an angel has gone back to heaven after giving 20 precious years and lessons of living the life. She passed away on 5thMarch, 2011. To fulfill her dream, Neeti, as Chairman of ‘Ekta n Angels’ and Sudhir are carrying the mission and vision of daughter Ekta ahead.
